well my goal is to have it ready for the 20th but its coming down to the wire still hopefull though!!!
as far as the corvette covers i was originally planning on (and still might) filling in the "CORVETTE" painting the covers and applying "Fiero GT" decals (like on the '85 GT's decklid), and pop out the cross flags and glue on a GT emblem but i kinda want non engine knowledgeable people who look at my car to know its a vette engine.

oh and about the exhaust yeah i like it to not sure how loud it will be yet but i dont really care. no emissions here in MI so no cats for me. and the simplicity of the system allows me to keep my whole trunk. Its actually a standard Archie setup and as per usual i found that his methods are tried and true the only diff is i didnt use the mufflers he does cause they were out of stock. When I was welding up the exhaust the only place i could find that had mufflers to fit my application was Tractor Supply Co. LOL. Yup those mufflers are for a John Deere! They actually should work out really well as they are a chambered muffler. And very well constructed i might add.

Well we did get it in last night. I must say the only thing tighter than that motor in that car would be tryin to stretch an gnats ass over a telephone pole lol. If I have any thing to say Tyler will have that car at the 20th. He has helped me out on my 3800 SC and it is it's final stage of being done. It will be there for the 20th and it wouldn't be right if we couldn't black top some roads together up there in Detroit. We will get this car done before the 20th!!!
